Look, I think we are forced to do reconciliation.
As soon as we passed the working family tax cuts, I was ready to go ahead and work on reconciliation
that I've come to the conclusion that Democrats hate Donald Trump so much, if he brought a cure for cancer to the Senate floor, they would vote against it.
And that's just the political reality that we live in right now.
And I still think there's some moral issues and value issues going on back home as well.
And people say, you know, what can you do to help me?
Look, we need people with
traditional American values of faith and family, community, hard work, you know, running for the school board and all those local offices as well.
So I think there's things that we need to do back home to shore up our families.
But you're absolutely right.
This is a time I've never seen.
It probably goes back to the Civil War when you had two parties so distantly split.
One more thing, and you guys
But I think in this day and age, what I see is the far right and the far left running these political parties.
It's the tail wagging the dog that this vocal minorities control the narrative.
They control the fundraising and they control the news cycle as well.
And the legacy media just beats the hell out of all of us.
So if you're a moderate, and I didn't use the word moderate, if you're a sensible Democrat and you want to vote for voter ID or funding ICE, I mean, you will be torn to pieces by your own party.
And it is much more difficult than I think folks back home realize what it's like to get torn up by your own party.
Yeah, Vince, thank you for the conversation.
